Yes but ONLY!! the pieces that are already hanging off you CANNOT peel the shed that hasnt already seperated from the body it will damage the new scales

thanks for the advise, i'll let it fall off by itself. can u suggest a cleaner for the aqurium

Well my PetSmart cleaners are a BIT expensive so what i do is take everythin gout the viv. And i use only about 10% bleach 90% water and scrub away. Afterwards i THOROUGHLY rinse the viv out twice to make sure there are no chemicals left. Then i wipe the viv down inside and out to wipe away any aremaining water to keep humidity down. And voila a clean viv.

I would avoid using bleach in their vivs...the fumes could be bad... The breeder who I know where I bought my BD from said Vinegar and hot water was much safer and adequate for sterilizing it.
